Martial Arts Master Travelled to Ancient Time and Farms

Chapter 270 Ask the prince to take command!

Great Wei Imperial Palace, Imperial Garden.

It was still the same Penglai Pond, and the same fishing rods, Wei Huang's little fishing club started again.

It's just that there were more Prime Minister He Han, Crown Prince Xiao Man, and the less conspicuous secretary Lang Chengling in this small meeting.

Now late spring has passed, and it is early summer, and the green shade of Penglai Pool is thick. Wei Huang flicked the fishing rod and hooked it straight into the water, just like Jiang Taigong fishing, and those who wished would take the bait.

He casually asked, "He Aiqing, I said a few days ago that I would promote "Nongsang Shiji", but now there is progress?"

"Nongsang Shiji" is a book written by Cheng Ling!

It turned out that Wei Huang had already asked He Han to promote the book as early as the first time he received "Nong Sang Shi Ji". At that time, Wei Huang hadn't even seen Cheng Ling.

Of course, as long as the content in the book is true and effective, no matter what kind of person Cheng Ling is, Emperor Wei will promote the book.

After all, in today's era, there is really only one agricultural book that is as systematic and detailed as "Nongsang Shiji", even with illustrations and texts, and is easy to understand.

Especially regarding the cultivation of cotton, Emperor Wei attached great importance to it.

He not only ordered people to promote "Nongsang Shiji", but also ordered people to search for farms in various places in Wei State to collect cotton seeds.

Of course, when Fang Zhan asked the courier to send the book, he also donated a batch of cotton seeds to Beijing. Wei Huang didn't waste this batch of cotton seeds, so he directly asked someone to plant them in Huangzhuang.

Now two months have passed, and the cotton seedlings have emerged, and the growth is just right, which is quite gratifying.

The dignified prime minister, He Han, was ordered to take care of such trivial matters as the promotion of agricultural books, and he also showed his dedication.

When Wei Huang asked, he replied: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the first edition of "Nongsang Shiji" has 50,000 volumes, all of which have been printed and bound, and distributed to all states and counties. Then each state and county will give a copy and print it according to the situation. Be sure to make this book Being able to travel down to the villages ensures that there are books to teach in every village and every mile, so that the farmers can bathe in the grace of heaven as much as possible!"

Speaking of this, a smile appeared on He Han's usually calm and serious face, and he said again: "Especially the several fertilizer formulas recorded in the agricultural books, and the Zhuangzi under the name of the minister is also learning to use them. In the past few months, the results have been very remarkable.”

Yes, "Nongsang Shiji" not only records and explains the best ways to grow various crops and how to improve various tools, but also records several methods of preparing soil and fertilizers.

In He Han's opinion, the formula of these fertilizers is the real essence of this book!

To be honest, if the emperor hadn't asked him to promote this book, He Han might have deleted some key parts of the book the very first moment he found it.

For example, the fertilizer formula, or the detailed drawing of the loom!

Unfortunately, he was not the first to discover this book. Thinking about the majesty of Emperor Wei, He Han finally suppressed the idea of ​​tampering with the promotion process, and honestly maximized the promotion.

Either don't do it, since it's done, He Han made a move, there is nothing wrong with it!

Wei Huang also laughed, he leisurely held the fishing rod in one hand, and said, "Excellent, it has to be He Aiqing."

Don't look at He Han's simple words, but in fact, if he is not doing this kind of thing, it is impossible for anyone else to communicate the government order so quickly and sensitively.

And when it comes to He Han, it's just a matter of promoting an agricultural book, isn't it just a matter of his words?

He Handao: "It's all dependent on His Majesty, and what I do is not worth mentioning."

Wei Huang laughed and said, "He Aiqing, you are the most humble."

He Han even said he didn't dare.

The monarchs and ministers flattered each other again, and for a while, they were harmonious, as if the monarchs and ministers got along well with each other.

Then Wei Huang was talking, and the topic suddenly changed again.

He said: "If Nanzheng is the case, who does He Aiqing think should be the commander in chief?"

Southern Expedition!

Everyone's spirits were shaken. At the Xiaochao meeting earlier, although Emperor Wei had explained that Murong Hong and Feng Kan would each lead an army and go out in two groups, the commander-in-chief had not yet been discussed.

More than ten years ago, when fighting against Wuhu, Emperor Wei often took command in person, and there was no dissatisfaction among the three armies. As a result, he became the emperor of Wu with great achievements, and he was powerful in the north for many years.

But now, Emperor Wei is old!

Perhaps it was because of too much conquest when he was young, Wei Huang's physical condition has actually been worse than before in recent years. Knowing the destiny at the age of fifty, if it is well maintained, it can still be said to be legitimate and vigorous, but it is a pity that Wei Huang is not like this.

Although his posture is still tall and majestic, his hair is all gray, the wrinkles on his face are deep, and the corners of his eyes and brows are full of signs of time.

As for He Han, who was older than him, most of his hair color was black now, but he looked much younger than him.

The courtiers saw Wei Huang's state in their eyes, who could have no idea? It's just that everyone's thoughts are hidden deep, and they dare not express it clearly!

In any case, it is impossible for Emperor Wei to be in command again.

He Han thought about it, and said: "Your Majesty, the head of the military attache is Grand Sima Rongchang. If Da Sima is the commander, it should be enough to convince the public."

Da Sima is handsome, it is indeed enough to convince the crowd, but it is too convincing, can Emperor Wei be happy?

All the people present pricked up their ears, listening to the answer between the emperor and the prime minister.

Wei Huang sighed: "Liang Qing is also fifty-six this year!"

Grand Sima Liang Yunshan was older than Emperor Wei. When he expelled the Wuhu, Liang Yunshan was Emperor Wei's general, right-hand man. But now, Liang Yunshan is also old!

Heroes are not afraid of battle, but afraid of twilight.

Wei Huang said: "How can I have the heart to make Liang Qing go on an expedition again?"

He Han then said: "If Da Sima can't go out, then the only one who is qualified to be in command now is..."

Having said that, his voice paused slightly, but his eyes turned to the side, Xiaoman's direction.

Finally, He Han said that sentence: "Your Majesty, maybe His Royal Highness, can you go out?"

Wei Huang also turned his attention to Xiao Man, and he asked: "Prince, the prime minister recommends that you personally lead the battle, would you like it?"

It is very appropriate for the crown prince to be in command, both in terms of reason and status.

If he can gain military exploits in the Southern Expedition, then the crown prince's position will be even more secure. Which of the other princes can threaten him again?

As expected, Emperor Wei still favored the prince the most, is he going to pave the way for him?

The only question is, does the prince, who has always been mediocre, even a little timid, dare to fight for this impressive military exploit?

Xiao Man stood up, and replied calmly and decisively: "Father, my son is willing."

"Brother Prince!" An exclamation came from the other side of the imperial garden, but on a flower path opposite Penglai Pond, the sixth prince was standing there with his mouth open in surprise, holding a delicate basket. Approving eyes looked at Xiao Man.
